Confusing Sign Removed from Booker T.

Dallas ISD officials have removed a confusing sign from the side of a new wing of the Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts.
Some members of the public were outraged recently when the district put up “Hamon Arts Magnet” on the side of the new wing, leaving many with the impression that the school’s name had been changed. School supporter Nash Flores said new signs will be erected “inside and out” to honor those who contributed to the school’s recent $55 million renovation. But the new signs, unlike the controversial one, will make clear that the school’s name remains Booker T. Washington.
